Applies to independent administrators with will annexed appointed by Bexar County Probate Court No. 2 (Judge Veronica Vasquez); the court's checklist requires the attorney to provide the applicable guide to the client. The Spanish edition, "Una Guía Para El Albacea Independiente Del Testamento Adjunto (Albacea Necesario)", is registered separately as doc 448. Procedural information only; not legal advice.

Reviewer note: Composed 2026-09-08 from the TOPICs custody file (four pages; native text layer read in full; the Spanish edition's opening pages were checked to confirm it is a translation of the same guide and its receipt is carried on this rule rather than published twice).
G-2026-045-SC required anyone using generative AI to disclose it on the face of the filing and add a scripted certification, on pain of striking, denial of relief or monetary penalties. Rule 2.515(d)(2) and AOSC26-12 preempted it on June 15, 2026, so it could not be enforced — and by August 16, 2026 the Seventh Circuit had removed the order from its published register (no rescission instrument appears there). BenchPath holds the hashed capture as the historical record.
